I mean places without playgrounds, parking lots, gift shops, and any of those annoying things.

Answer
Avoid National Parks. Go to National Forest Campgrounds or go dispersed camping or try Virginia State Parks, depending on your level of comfort with primitive, wild, or developed camping.

where is a good camp ground in northern va for roughing it?

Jack Melto

Im trying to find a place in Northern Virginia where me and a few friends can pitch a tent, start a fire, fish, and hike for about 3 or 4 days. preferably some where that we can "rough it".

Answer
Prince William Forest Park....The entrance is of Joplin Rd. They have a camp ground in the back that is more rustic. I like going there, it's probably as good as it gets considering the area. You'll wanna use the camping lots in the very back, there the best ones.
